[Icom] IC-706MKiiG vs. FT-100D

>  This means that if you remote mount the radio and have the removable
front panel somewhere near the dash board, you will have to run separate
cables to the radio for mic AND speaker/headphones!

I have had both rigs.   Running an FT-100 now.  The other side of this
argument is that with the Yaesu arrangement you only have a single cable
attached to the control head.  You get a long mic and speaker cable with the
remote kit, giving you the flexibility of mounting the speaker anywhere.
